Expert Solution
Step 1

BLAST is a local alignment search tool that is used to obtain the nucleotide or protein sequences of a gene and then compared with the same protein/nucleotide sequence if different organisms to identify homology. With the help of bioinformatics application BLAST, one can retrieve any nucleotide or protein sequences from the gene database and then compare it with the genome or protein sequence of organisms of different species. The similarity in the sequence indicates homologous sequences. The homologous sequences are the means to identify common ancestry of related and non-related species and structures.
